This week Dr Sonja Grater and her post-graduate students attended The Cargo Show, Africa 2016 where she spoke on the topic:”New trade routes and trade corridors in Africa”.

Jacob van Rensburg (Master’s candidate) and Anita Schaap (PhD candidate) were there to learn more about this world of logistics, transport and infrastructure. Jacob’s study is about the factors influencing port selection and Anita is looking at one-stop border posts as a way to facilitate trade in Southern Africa.
